How can I run the current file in PyCharm

How can I run the current file in PyCharm? I would like a single hotkey that will execute the current file (whether normal file, scratch file, or scratch buffer) using the project default python interpreter. I would like to NOT have to create a custom run configuration, but just launch with the default Python configuration. Is such a thing possible?

Solution 1:

As it turns out, the action I was seeking is "Run context configuration" (or "Debug context configuration" for debugging). The default key binding on Windows is ctrl+shift+f10, or ctrl+option+R on Mac, as Ev. Kounis pointed out, although you can bind it to any key you like.

These settings can be found under the "Other" section in File->Settings->Keymap. The easiest way to find them is to simply use the search box.

Solution 2:

Just right click on the tab of your file and click run "file name" or you can press CTRL+shift+F10

Solution 3:

The key combination you are looking for is Ctrl + Shift + F10. This will run the current script with current being the one displayed in the viewer.

Solution 4:

There are several alternatives:

1. Run context configuration from editor shortcut:

Mac: ⌃⇧R

Windows/Linux: Ctrl + Shift + F10

2. You can right click on the file, and then run Run 'filename'.

3. You can also run the shortcut to Find Action and then type run:

Mac: ⇧⌘A

Windows/Linux: Ctrl + Shift + A

4. If the current file was just run, you can simply use the Run shortcut:

Mac: ⌃R

Windows/Linux: Shift + F10
